If you're already using the beta Beryllium, then this is enough:
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

I have done that on two devices, all is great. I am tempted to follow the upgrade path with my remaining Lithium system rather than a clean install.

noobie question, how to UPGRADE to this version ? I installed BL a few weeks ago so my actual version is not too much outdated

If a moderator wants to move this to "Bug Reports" go ahead, but I think it's more of a hardware compatibility issue.

Downloaded the 64-bit iso and used dd to burn it to a thumb drive after verifying with the checksum file.

BL boots to live session or loads to RAM on an older, legacy BIOS, HP laptop, and on a newer, uEFI, Toshiba laptop.

Refuses to boot on a Dell Inspirion 3793 laptop (uEFI). Fails with the message "Something went horribly wrong" and the laptop shuts off. The Thumb drive is visible and can be selected from the boot menu. Secure boot is turned off and Void, ArchLabs, and Hatchery (Debian based) thumb drives will boot to live sessions.

Tried a second download and burn to thumb drive and got the same result.

Went Old School and burned the BL Beryllium iso to a DVD-R. Success; BL boots to the live session and the installer at least starts (just verified it starts then aborted installation).

Not sure if that incompatibility is on Dell's end or the way BL creates the iso.

Rohroh! I also have a dell inspirion 3793 and the install went fine here. Maybe different components? or the thumb drive went wonky?

Probably one of those.

Edit - Wonky thumb drive. Boots on every computer but the Dell. Burned iso to a different thumb drive and BL Beryllium booted up just fine, and everything in the live session works.

^, ^^...

Thanks for your devoted testing, gents. This is part of why BL is still a relevant distro.

@johnraff, truly awesome work. The best one-man Debian distro (with lots of community help), BunsenLabs.

My mistake.

It is a Sandisk Cruzer thumb drive. I forgot to properly remove the CDFS file system with the Sandisk tools from the drive. Removed that (need to be in Windows) with the included tool and reformatted the drive with a full format. All is right with the thumb drive now.

Screenshot or it never happened:

Thanks, but it's not a 1-man distro really. First, building on the work of dozens of people in the past (starting with Corenominal of course, and including @hhh), then dependent on support from this community. Without that it would end tomorrow. Also, I'm looking forward to the day when the dev team is a bit bigger and I can get out of the spotlight for a while...

dolly · 2022-12-22 04:16:17

Good news indeed, thank you team, and everybody else who in one way or other participated in getting it done.

mufrious · 2022-12-22 22:06:45

Congratulations to the team for this new release, and thanks for the dedication and help!

Jimbo_G · 2022-12-26 15:37:14

I'm a bit late to the party, but congratulations and thanks to all involved - I use BL daily and it's honestly a pleasure to boot up every time. For me the balance is just right between minimalism, efficiency and little quality of life tweaks (even if I do sometimes still miss the original #! days)

DeepDayze · 2022-12-26 19:23:41

Congrats on the shiny new BL Beryllium release and while it was sure a long time in coming was well worth the wait. Next stop, Boron!!!

ututo · 2022-12-26 22:06:06

Congrats to the team! Great job! Enjoying beryllium!

cog · 2022-12-27 05:35:47

Congrats BL team.

topdollar · 2022-12-27 07:25:08

Awesome Job!

Incredible effort from everyone!

@johnraff, @hhh, skills matter!

TD!

hhh · 2022-12-28 06:00:00

@topdollar, thank you. This release was mostly @johnraff, big kudos to him. The default theme is by @sleekmason, awesome work! The menu is by @malm, too cool for school. Other features are work improved upon from previous releases (@Sector11, @damo, etc... all great work). I think the wallpaper is mine, more or less.

A huge thanks to our forum members for their input, feedback, contributions and patience.
